At 5:44p +0800 10/01/2006, Peter N Lewis didst inscribe upon an
electronic BTW, Interarchy 8.0 dropped support for MacBinary
(essentially because it caused more problems than it solved),
however Interarchy 8.2 added support for transparent file
converters, and include both a MacBinary encoder, as well as a
Backup encoder which encodes all meta data (including things like
HFS+ extended attributes) and has none of the limitations of
MacBinary.
What ever happened with MacBinary III?
(Did I ask this before?)
MacBinary III is defined at:
http://www.lazerware.com/macbinary/macbinary_iii.html
It is used by most modern MacBinary encoders. It is backwards
compatible with MacBinary I and II. If adds the Finder script field
and a byte of Finder extended flags. It does not really go very far
towards resolving any of the major MacBinary failings.
Enjoy,
Peter.
